Lol that lady in the video. Are we sure she isn't from where I live? I have to listen to that twang every day. The commercials..... But wow, yes, lots of work to go into that soap. Definitely one to be respected. Loved seeing everyone's babies!

My fridge freezes and quits about every 2 months, randomly. Luckily unplugging it overnight fixes it, but I had just bought some goat's milk (I did get 5 bars out of that) and some cow's milk to soap with (among other uses for cow's, but still) when the fridge decided to act out. Spent an...

Ooooo I have a little Turkish Mocha, too. I'm thinking Gap red, still going to give it a day or so before I sign the sheet. These sound fun!

I haven't tried that. For some odd reason sodium lactate always made my HP soap on a stick, and my HP soaps got lots better after I forgot it one night. I had my fling with it, but I like colors and swirlies too much to stick with it. I definitely think every CP soaper should still have a...

I cannot live without my micas and oxides. Just sayin......

I have a lot, and I mean a lot, of fibro twitches, but never the satisfaction of twitching a pen in the bossman's face. I also have a quirky sense of humor, probably would have laughed hysterically while apologizing mortifiably, and been fired. This made me LOL.

I am a rambler. My posts are usually longish. They have meat in them. But then I get distracted and pop away weeks at a time so you guys get a break.

@snappyllama, I will keep that in mind! I love anything to do with fruit scents, and I don't trust my blending yet because my nose likes every thing. Except NG peach, and I am still burned out on BB Lavender Cedar, although it might be a good fall scent.

I was wondering, too, about it all before it happened. I got my first one testing a batch of HP soap for done-ness. There really isn't much mistaking it when it happens

@makes_scents, love the color of that soap! The added sprinkles down the middle will look so good in bars. That is the color I drink my coffee... all princessed and sugared and girlified up. Some coffee, mostly cream. Can't wait to see them in bars!

@janzo it was pretty in its own way, I will definitely agree. I will be reattempting it, but with straight cocoa lines and no little butts on top. (The unintentional heart butts landed it there, but we all got a good howl at them)

I need to look into some kind of self spoilage like this for Solomon. Like he needs any more spoiling.... (yes, he does. Heehee.) But he doesn't like anyone but he Moms so I can't take him to spa. He eats them.

Thanks guys! I just want to learn to do it even though! They are still plenty usable. Anyone have suggestions on how to embed heart tops and not get howls of laughter and butt jokes? (Some were worse, I won't include them, my bosses may get that soap thrown at them.)

I often can come across as kind of dumb on very simple things because my brain refuses to follow simple directions a lot of the time. It wants to run right past them and twist things and turn them and ask 'but what if we did it this way' questions. I kind of dislike being programmed that way...

I got the BB Fall Fragrance Sampler and while soaping my divider fell so my Anjou Pear went down the whole mold. To make it a big enough bar, I layered the Red Apple on top of it and as a dual scented bar, it's lovely, but I love all the scents in it and I am not a picky scenter at all. If...

I have been at it almost a year. My layers are still gloppy. I am teaching myself pencils like, this month. Swirls are still hit and miss. So many techniques I'm clumsy with! And I am so, so proficient at making soap on a stick, or real close to it. But, I always make soap. So I am...

It never gets old for me! My fella is an enabler though. I will be twitching and he says 'Well, go unmold it!' (but I better not.) I am better now with repeat soaps, but a new color or technique, or scent and I am still sooooo awful.

I love the 'please reply with a' thank you' post. I hope in any I have posted I have not neglected to do this. If I have please let me know. I am huge on appreciation, though, for one thing, and two, it is a way for the poster to communicate that they are paying attention to the replies...

@janzo I would LOVE some photos of coffee trees! Oh, the envy! I am such a coffee addict, me and boyfriend both. (Dentist hates me. Just saying.) We would be in hog heaven where you are! I'm teaching myself pencil lines right now--that's the technique I have decided to focus on, and cocoa...

awww that sweet face! I am so glad you made something that worked for him! You should show your pictures to the vet. I hate it so much when doctors--people doctors or vets--just brush things off.
